Notre Dame WR commit Cam Williams honored by All-American Bowl
The All-American Bowl is honoring prospects who are committed to playing in the prestigious postseason all-star game as part of a virtual jersey presentation. And a Notre Dame commit was honored on Wednesday night.
Glen Ellyn (Ill.) Glenbard South’s Cam Williams, the nation’s No. 28 overall prospect and No. 8 wide receiver according to the 2024 On3 Industry Ranking, officially became a part of the All-American Bowl family, receiving his jersey during a virtual presentation.
Having been selected to play in the twenty-fourth edition of the All-American Bowl, Williams will play in the annual East vs. West matchup inside the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas. The 2024 All-American Bowl on January 6, 2024 will be presented live on NBC and Peacock.
The All-American Bowl always has Notre Dame players, and Williams is expected to be joined by West Roxbury (Mass.) Catholic Memorial offensive tackle Guerby Lambert, Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco linebacker Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa, Lufkin (Texas) High running back Kedren Young and potentially Saline (Mich.) High quarterback CJ Carr in San Antonio.
On3 updated its 2024 rankings in September, and Williams moved up several spots and ranks as the No. 28 prospect and No. 5 wideout in America per their own rankings.

“I absolutely love what Cam Williams has done early on in his senior season,” On3 director of scouting and recruiting Charles Power said. “The 2024 group of receivers is one of the best I’ve ever seen at the top with five-star type prospects at the position. And going through that group, it was hard not to move Williams up. He’s the highest-ranked four-star receiver currently.
“I love watching him play. He’s a high-effort, high-energy, physical receiver who finds a way to impact the game. When we watch these blue-chip prospects, we want to see how they effect the game, and Cam Williams dominates in every facet. He’s a major threat with the ball in his hands. He separates vertically with ease and every time he has the ball, he’s liable to score. He’s dynamic as a return man, can take end arounds and is also playing defense. His effort level doesn’t drop.
“Notre Dame fans have to be extremely excited about getting Cam Williams. In my opinion, you have to go back a long ways to find a receiver prospect that’s more talented. There’s a lot to like about Cam Williams.”
